Perpetual Patterns:BookPostersInstallation

→

Perpetual Patterns is a book, installation, and poster series for an exhibition about the American composer Philip Glass. The project explores Glass's unique approach as a composer and artistic collaborator, with a focus on his early life in New York, his classical background, and his unorthodox approach to opera. Using what Glass calls an additive rhythm, the grid of the book itself grows and fluctuates minutely each page, echoing the structural nature of his compositions. Additionally, the book borrows from his piece " 1+1", by attaching a contact mic to the book's center, and allowing it to become an instrument and surface for user interaction.
